![]() But I challenge you to see that God will use what you currently have to get you to where he needs you to be. and sometimes it causes us to despise what we currently have we hate our jobs, partners, house, clothes, everything about us seems to be just what we don’t need. We have desires, aspirations, dreams etc. What you’re going to be, is going to come out from what you have/are now.īecause by his power he has given us everything necessary for life and righteousness- 2 Peter 1:3Īll you need to do is not despise what you have now, instead be grateful for it, nurture it with all of your heart and speak the word of God into it then watch God use it to increase you.ĭo not despise these small beginnings – Zechariah 4:10 We see many such examples in the bible, when God used people’s current abilities and possessions to bless them and increase their lot.Īt every point in a person’s life, there is a manifestation of his destiny available to him for his use to get to that destiny. Elisha gave instructions and the little oil filled barrels and was sold to cover her debts. To her that oil was nothing, but to God it was what she needed to meet her current need. We have another example in 2 kings 4: 1- 7 the widow of a prophet was in debt and had no means of paying up, she went to Elisha for help and what did he do! He asked her, ‘What do you have in your house?’ She replied ‘Nothing, just a little oil’. Many a times we look outside ourselves for help to do something, thus doubting God’s ability to use that which he had placed in us, take our little and make it into something more than enough for us. Jesus blessed the little and it was enough with 12 baskets of leftovers. To the disciples 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes couldn’t feed 5000 people but to God it was more than enough. They needed food and asked if anyone had any to spare a boy offered his 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes (which is not even enough to feed only Jesus and his disciples). The staff by the power of God became the staff of God (Exodus 4:20) and it was used to part the red sea, perform the 10 plagues, bring water out of the rock etc.Īnother example is in John 6: 5-12, here Jesus was faced with the challenge of feeding over 5000 people who had gathered to hear him speak. To Moses it was just a rod, to God it was an instrument for miracles. Moses however was afraid that they won’t believe him and he asked for a sign of the power of God and God asked him this question ‘What is in your hand?’ To Moses, it was just a staff used to beat stubborn sheep but to God, it was it was the instrument by which miracles will be performed. ![]() This question appears for the first time in Exodus 4:2, where God called Moses and told him to go and lead the children of Israel into the Promised Land. ![]()
